How stable is the nose 10 weeks after rhinoplasty? Would a minor bump cause damage?

As a generaly rule, stability of your nose occurs 8-10 weeks post-rhinoplasty.  If your nose does not look different after the trauma, it is unlikely that you hit it hard enough to cause permanent damage.  Tobacco of any kind should not be smoked after a rhinoplasty for the first three months, as healing will be impaired.  Good luck!

Dear AhmedIf it looks the same, it is likely you have not done damage.Usually stable at 8 weeks but that doesn't mean its solid, it can still be re-fractured, so be cautious. If you smoke flavored tobacco in Hookah it will have a different effect than smoking non-tobacco products. Tobacco products effects blood vessels and may delay wound healing. Often, when you smoke Hookah, you may drink and alcohol increases likelihood of you or your friends bumping your nose. Be patient and careful for at least another 4 weeks.

If it was a minor "bump", you should be in the clear, as the nasal bones take around 6 wks to heal.  That being said, if you are concerned, see some obvious changes once the swelling comes down, etc., you should contact your surgeon for them to take a look.Also, smoke of any kind impairs the function of the lining of the nose and can impact both healing and the results.  If you have stayed away so far, I would continue without it.
